This gambrel roof barn was built in 1914 after the original structure was hit by a tornado. The beams and posts in the barn are circular sawn. The barn has stored livestock and hay. It is currently used to house sheep and goats, and it stores hay and straw. The wooden white siding was covered in the early 1970s when red metal siding was put on the barn.
The quilt square was selected because of the letter "T" in conjunction with their name.
